How I Work

My
design thinking process

01

User Research

I begin every project by understanding the audience, business goals, and market context. Through interviews, audits, and competitor analysis, I uncover the insights that guide meaningful design decisions.

02

Define Problems

Using research findings, I identify core user pain points and business challenges. This stage helps prioritize features, establish clear objectives, and align stakeholders on what success looks like.

03

Design & Prototype

From wireframes to high-fidelity mockups, I craft visual and functional design solutions. Prototypes help visualize flows and interactions early—whether it’s a landing page, app, or full website.

04

Evaluation & Testing

I validate designs through usability testing, feedback loops, and technical reviews. This ensures the final product isn’t just beautiful, but intuitive, performant, and ready for development or launch.
